How to implement pagination in React

Solution 1:

I've implemented pagination in pure React JS recently. Here is a working demo: http://codepen.io/PiotrBerebecki/pen/pEYPbY

You would of course have to adjust the logic and the way page numbers are displayed so that it meets your requirements.

Full code:

class TodoApp extends React.Component {
  constructor() {
    super();
    this.state = {
      todos: ['a','b','c','d','e','f','g','h','i','j','k'],
      currentPage: 1,
      todosPerPage: 3
    };
    this.handleClick = this.handleClick.bind(this);
  }

  handleClick(event) {
    this.setState({
      currentPage: Number(event.target.id)
    });
  }

  render() {
    const { todos, currentPage, todosPerPage } = this.state;

    // Logic for displaying todos
    const indexOfLastTodo = currentPage * todosPerPage;
    const indexOfFirstTodo = indexOfLastTodo - todosPerPage;
    const currentTodos = todos.slice(indexOfFirstTodo, indexOfLastTodo);

    const renderTodos = currentTodos.map((todo, index) => {
      return <li key={index}>{todo}</li>;
    });

    // Logic for displaying page numbers
    const pageNumbers = [];
    for (let i = 1; i <= Math.ceil(todos.length / todosPerPage); i++) {
      pageNumbers.push(i);
    }

    const renderPageNumbers = pageNumbers.map(number => {
      return (
        <li
          key={number}
          id={number}
          onClick={this.handleClick}
        >
          {number}
        </li>
      );
    });

    return (
      <div>
        <ul>
          {renderTodos}
        </ul>
        <ul id="page-numbers">
          {renderPageNumbers}
        </ul>
      </div>
    );
  }
}


ReactDOM.render(
  <TodoApp />,
  document.getElementById('app')
);

Solution 2:

I have tried to recreate the simple pagination example given by piotr-berebecki which was great. But when there will be a lot of pages then the pagination will overflow in the screen. So, I used previous and back button along with forward and backward button to stream back and forth between the pages. And for design part I have used bootstrap 3.

You can customize no of pages to display in pagination using the pagebound values. Make sure to use same value for upperPageBound and pageBound.

    class TodoApp extends React.Component {
          constructor() {
            super();
            this.state = {
              todos: ['a','b','c','d','e','f','g','h','i','j','k','l','m',
'n','o','p','q','r','s','t','u','v','w','x','y','z'],
              currentPage: 1,
              todosPerPage: 3,
              upperPageBound: 3,
              lowerPageBound: 0,
              isPrevBtnActive: 'disabled',
              isNextBtnActive: '',
              pageBound: 3
            };
            this.handleClick = this.handleClick.bind(this);
            this.btnDecrementClick = this.btnDecrementClick.bind(this);
            this.btnIncrementClick = this.btnIncrementClick.bind(this);
            this.btnNextClick = this.btnNextClick.bind(this);
            this.btnPrevClick = this.btnPrevClick.bind(this);
            // this.componentDidMount = this.componentDidMount.bind(this);
            this.setPrevAndNextBtnClass = this.setPrevAndNextBtnClass.bind(this);
          }
          componentDidUpdate() {
                $("ul li.active").removeClass('active');
                $('ul li#'+this.state.currentPage).addClass('active');
          }
          handleClick(event) {
            let listid = Number(event.target.id);
            this.setState({
              currentPage: listid
            });
            $("ul li.active").removeClass('active');
            $('ul li#'+listid).addClass('active');
            this.setPrevAndNextBtnClass(listid);
          }
          setPrevAndNextBtnClass(listid) {
            let totalPage = Math.ceil(this.state.todos.length / this.state.todosPerPage);
            this.setState({isNextBtnActive: 'disabled'});
            this.setState({isPrevBtnActive: 'disabled'});
            if(totalPage === listid && totalPage > 1){
                this.setState({isPrevBtnActive: ''});
            }
            else if(listid === 1 && totalPage > 1){
                this.setState({isNextBtnActive: ''});

              let listid = this.state.upperPageBound + 1;

Image : simple react pagination

Solution 3:

Here is a way to create your Custom Pagination Component from react-bootstrap lib and this component you can use Throughout your project enter image description here

Your Pagination Component (pagination.jsx or js)

import React, { Component } from "react"; 
import { Pagination } from "react-bootstrap"; 
import PropTypes from "prop-types";

export default class PaginationHandler extends Component {  

   constructor(props) {
    super(props);
    this.state = {
      paging: {
        offset: 0,
        limit: 10
      },
      active: 0
    };  
    }

  pagingHandler = () => {
    let offset = parseInt(event.target.id);
    this.setState({
      active: offset
    });
    this.props.pageHandler(event.target.id - 1);   };

  nextHandler = () => {
    let active = this.state.active;
    this.setState({
      active: active + 1
    });
    this.props.pageHandler(active + 1);   };

  backHandler = () => {
    let active = this.state.active;
    this.setState({
      active: active - 1
    });
    this.props.pageHandler(active - 1);   };

  renderPageNumbers = (pageNumbers, totalPages) => {
    let { active } = this.state;
    return (
      <Pagination>
        <Pagination.Prev disabled={active < 5} onClick={ active >5 && this.backHandler} />

        {
      pageNumbers.map(number => {
              if (
                number >= parseInt(active) - 3 &&
                number <= parseInt(active) + 3 
              ) {
                return (
                  <Pagination.Item
                    id={number}
                    active={number == active}
                    onClick={this.pagingHandler}
                  >
                    {number}
                  </Pagination.Item>
                );
              } else {
                return null;
              }
        })}
        <Pagination.Next onClick={ active <= totalPages -4 && this.nextHandler} />
      </Pagination>
    );   };

  buildComponent = (props, state) => {
    const { totalPages } = props;
    const pageNumbers = [];
    for (let i = 1; i <= totalPages; i++) {
      pageNumbers.push(i);
    }
    return (
      <div className="pull-right">
      {this.renderPageNumbers(pageNumbers ,totalPages)}
      </div>
    );   
};

  render() {
    return this.buildComponent(this.props, this.state);
  } 

} 
   PaginationHandler.propTypes = 
   {
    paging: PropTypes.object,
    pageHandler: PropTypes.func,
    totalPages: PropTypes.object 
   };

Use of Above Child Component in your Parent Component as shown below

import Pagination from "../pagination";

pageHandler = (offset) =>{
      this.setState(({ paging }) => ({
        paging: { ...paging, offset: offset }
      }));
   }
   render() {
    return (
      <div>
         <Pagination
          paging = {paging}
          pageHandler = {this.pageHandler}
          totalPages = {totalPages}>
          </Pagination>
      </div>
    );
  }
